Every year, the GDCh collects data on chemistry degree programmes and, every two years, data on habilitations, habilitation candidates and junior professorships at German universities.
Statistics on chemistry degree programmes
Every year, the GDCh collects extensive data from all universities offering chemistry degree programmes on the number of students in the various stages of study, the number of examinations taken, their results and the duration of study. Information on entry into the profession after completing a bachelor’s degree, master’s degree or doctorate is also recorded. The GDCh is supported in this survey by the chemistry departments at the universities. The statistics are published annually at the beginning of July.
Survey on Habilitations, Junior Professorships and the Proportion of Women among Professors
For several years, the GDCh has also collected data on habilitations, habilitation candidates and junior professorships at German universities. In addition, the proportion of female C3 and C4 professors was surveyed. The survey is conducted every two years.
